Trump signs executive order banning gender-confused men from women’s and girls’ sports

The new executive order declares it ‘the policy of the United States to rescind all funds from educational programs’ that allow gender-confused men to compete against women and girls and extends beyond schools to the Olympics.

President Donald Trump signed an executive order banning men, including those who “identify” as female, from participating in women’s sports in order to “protect opportunities for women and girls to compete in safe and fair sports.”  

“The war on women’s sports is over,” declared the president to the delight of the crowd.  

 

The scene in the White House East Room on Wednesday where the president was flanked by dozens of women and girl athletes who had been waiting for this moment presented a stark contrast with Joe Biden’s action on his first day in office, when he signed an executive order defending students’ ability to compete in sports based on their perceived “gender identity.”  

Prominent in the crowd standing behind President Trump was former collegiate swimmer Riley Gaines who, as the president noted, has been on the forefront of the battle to keep men out of women’s school and professional athletics.   

Gaines became a popular, outspoken activist after “losing” to a gender-confused male, William “Lia” Thomas, at a National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) swimming championship in 2022.   

Title IX’s original intent restored 

“From now on, women’s sports will be only for women,” said Trump.  

He warned educational institutions, “If you let men take over women’s sports teams or invade your locker rooms, you will be investigated for violations of Title IX and risk your federal funding.”  

Passed in 1972, Title IX was enacted in order to prohibit sex-based discrimination in schools that receive federal funding. In recent years, Democrats have contorted its original intent to include gender-confused males and females under its umbrella.   

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt explained that the order “upholds the promise of Title IX” and requires “immediate action, including enforcement actions, against schools and athletic associations” that currently permit gender-confused males to to participate in women’s sports and use locker rooms  previously reserved for women and girls only.  

‘Demeaning, unfair, and dangerous’ for female athletes, no more 

“In recent years, many educational institutions and athletic associations have allowed men to compete in women’s sports,” notes the executive order, aptly titled “Keeping Men out of Women’s Sports.” “This is demeaning, unfair, and dangerous to women and girls, and denies women and girls the equal opportunity to participate and excel in competitive sports.” 

“As some Federal courts have recognized, ‘ignoring fundamental biological truths between the two sexes deprives women and girls of meaningful access to educational facilities,’” it continues.  

Therefore, it is the policy of the United States to rescind all funds from educational programs that deprive women and girls of fair athletic opportunities, which results in the endangerment, humiliation, and silencing of women and girls and deprives them of privacy.    

It shall also be the policy of the United States to oppose male competitive participation in women’s sports more broadly, as a matter of safety, fairness, dignity, and truth. 

Trump admin to Olympics: ‘America categorically rejects transgender lunacy’

The president’s directive extends beyond U.S. schools and sports leagues to the upcoming 2028 Summer Olympics to be held in Los Angeles.  

Trump authorized Secretary of State Marco Rubio to inform the International Olympic Committee that “America categorically rejects transgender lunacy. We want them to change everything having to do with the Olympics and having to do with this absolutely ridiculous subject.”  

He further directed Homeland Security head Kristi Noem to “deny any and all visa applications made by men attempting to fraudulently enter the United States while identifying themselves as women athletes to try and get into the Games.” 

NCAA welcomes a ‘clear, national standard’ 

The NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association) seemed to welcome the president’s executive order, saying it provides a “clear, national standard.”   

“The NCAA is an organization made up of 1,100 colleges and universities in all 50 states that collectively enroll more than 530,000 student-athletes,” noted a statement by NCAA President Charlie Baker. “We strongly believe that clear, consistent and uniform eligibility standards would best serve today’s student-athletes instead of a patchwork of conflicting state laws and court decisions. To that end, President Trump’s order provides a clear, national standard.”

“The NCAA Board of Governors is reviewing the executive order and will take necessary steps to align NCAA policy in the coming days, subject to further guidance from the administration,” continued Baker. “The Association will continue to help foster welcoming environments on campuses for all student-athletes. We stand ready to assist schools as they look for ways to support any student-athletes affected by changes in the policy.” 

Soon after Trump added his signature to his latest executive order, Harvard University fell in line with the order, removing its “transgender inclusion” policy from its athletics website.  

LGBT activist groups infuriated 

GLAAD, an organization that identifies itself as “the world’s largest LGBTQ media advocacy organization,” was infuriated by the executive order, claiming that men confused about their sex should be recognized as “women” and allowed to compete against women “if they want.”

LGBTQ+ Washington, D.C., lobbying group, the Human Rights Campaign, also attacked the executive order, as did National Women’s Law Center president and CEO, Fatima Goss Graves. 

Graves insisted that gender-confused students “do not pose threats to sports” or schools, despite numerous incidents of “transgender” males severely injuring women and girls in competitions, among other harms.

Older man arrested at Kirk shooting admits to protecting real gunman

Quick Hit:

Chaos followed the assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk when police first arrested a 71-year-old man who confessed he was only trying to distract them from the real shooter.

Key Details:

  • George Zinn, 71, was arrested after yelling, “I shot him, now shoot me!” but later admitted he was trying to mislead police.
  • The real suspect, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, was arrested Thursday night and identified publicly Friday morning.
  • Zinn was charged with obstruction of justice, a second-degree felony, while Robinson faces charges as the alleged assassin.

Diving Deeper:

Charlie Kirk, one of the most prominent young leaders in the conservative movement, was assassinated in a brazen political attack that shocked supporters nationwide. Instead of immediately capturing the real suspect, police initially detained George Zinn, a man with a long history of causing disruptions at political events and protests.

Video of Zinn being handcuffed quickly spread, leading many to believe the threat had been neutralized. But Zinn’s arrest was a diversion — one that he admitted to orchestrating in order to shield the real shooter. He told police he wanted to “draw attention from the real shooter,” an action that delayed accountability and nearly allowed a dangerous criminal to evade justice longer.

Zinn’s background only adds to the picture. As the Salt Lake Tribune noted, he has a history of disrupting events — from political speeches to cultural gatherings like the Sundance Film Festival. His disruptive activism fits a pattern of left-wing agitators who thrive on chaos, and in this case, he played a role in protecting an assassin.

Unite the Kingdom Rally: demonstrators take to the streets in historical numbers to demand end to mass migration in the UK

Published on September 16, 2025

By

If you haven’t been following the emergence of controversial UK journalist Tommy Robinson, you should try not to skip ahead to the aerial shot of what is likely the largest rally in modern UK history.

To even begin to understand the scope of the passion and to comprehend the numbers of English people who attended the “Unite the Kingdom Rally” in London on Saturday, some background information will be very helpful.

Like many western nations, Britain has seen an historical influx of immigrants.  With millions of new immigrants competing for housing, medical care, and government resources, very serious issues are bound to arise.  It makes you wonder how a government could or why a government would allow this to happen.

The following video shows very well what has taken place in terms of how many people have arrived in recent years, and who they are.

As the presenter showed, most of these migrants are from non European Union nations.  Many are from Muslim nations.  That means even in a highly multi-cultural nation like the UK, towns and cities are facing the cultural challenges of suddenly hosting a significant minority of young Muslim men.

Enter the most controversial political figure in Britain, Tommy Robinson.  Robinson’s hometown of Luton, Bedfordshire, England, was one of the first communities in the UK to see a significant percentage of Muslim population.  According to Robinson he noticed his childhood schoolyard and lunchrooms were divided into two separate groups, the traditional English (white Europeans, people from India, and the Caribbean, etc) and the Muslims.

As he got older Robinson claims he started to see a number of young girls being ‘recruited’ by older Muslim men into the drug culture, and becoming sexual partners for multiple Muslim men, including prominent members of the community.  When Robinson started to speak out publicly he was hit with a wall of official denials.  He would go on to challenge the authorities for years, becoming a citizen journalist and eventually an enemy of the state. If you watch his documentary series called The Rape of Britain you will understand just what he’s been claiming for about 15 years.

Fast forward to September of 2025.  The streets of many cities in the UK resemble Robinson’s hometown of Luton.  Robinson’s followers have multiplied from hundreds to thousands, to potentially millions.  The situation has caught the attention of President Donald Trump and X owner Elon Musk. On the weekend, untold thousands of Britons took to the streets of London for Robinson’s “Unite the Kingdom March”, a massive rally for free speech and British identity.

Without watching Robinson’s documentaries and journalism it can be difficult to understand the passion of his presentation from Saturday.  The growing thousands and millions in the UK understand.  Those who do not are very likely swayed by the media and government establishment who are trying desperately and less successfully by the day to brand Robinson as a Far Right racist.

Tommy Robinson appeared to be losing the battle for public opinion until Elon Musk stepped in.  Robinson was in jail last January when Musk took note and used his incredible social media reach to bring Robinson’s struggle to a much wider audience.

The owner of the X platform addressed the crowd via video link. In the days following the public execution of Charlie Kirk, Musk condemned the left as “the party of murder” and accused Britain’s political establishment of weaponizing mass migration to reshape the electorate.

 

Prime Minister Keir Starmer was quick to denounce the march while Reform UK leader Nigel Farage said the vast majority of demonstrators are “good, ordinary decent people” voicing legitimate concerns about mass migration and the safety of British streets.  At least 25 arrests were made Saturday and police say four police officers were seriously injured.

As for Tommy Robinson, he likely over achieved any expectations he had for this rally and now both he and the UK authorities are planning their next moves.
